What are the latest trends in stone Outdoor Fireplaces?

We have written about stone outdoor fireplaces in Charlotte for quite awhile now. The outdoor fireplace and firepit is no longer a fad. We believe it is here to stay! The reason we believe that is after 5 straight years of sales increases in outdoor fireplaces, we now see trends changing but not the purchase. We used to just see an outdoor fireplace or firepit as a stand alone product. Now the trends with outdoor fireplaces are they are often integrated into screen porches, decks, and patios with sitting walls. They are a mainstay in the backyard as part of the social movement to the outdoors. There is definitely a trend towards wood burning away from the gas only. We still see high demand for a gas starter but wood burning fireplace. The trend also is to stone and not brick. This is true even when the house is brick, people as still choosing stone as the accent. For more information and photo’s of these types of products installed, visit…
